The Border Dispute Revealed | Abandoned Stone Houses in Alaska | Destination Adventure

  • This story has been in the back of my mind for a year now, and I am so excited to share it with you all. Last year I explored a location that was supposed to contain remains from when Russia occupied Alaska. The location was fantastic, and the audience was amazed, but one viewer was not convinced. I received an email stating that the location could have been from the Canada Alaska border dispute, from the late 1800's. This was the first I had ever hear of this story, and after doing some deep digging, I believed the gentleman may be correct. This is a part of history between Canada and USA that is not taught, and rarely even discussed, so proving which story was correct would be a challenge.
    The ruins I had filmed were from one of four apparent storehouses built in the 1890's by the army corp of engineers, so I thought a comparison to another of the structures would prove which story is correct. Finding this structure was a bit more challenging than the previous, but upon arrival it was obvious that the other gentleman was correct. The two structures are incredibly similar, with only one exception, the stone gable. I also stopped and filmed the one in Hyder Alaska, which is the only of the four that has been restored. At this point, I have been able to film storehouse 1, 3 and 4, so I think a visit to storehouse 2 will be necessary in the near future.

    been watching your material since its infancy, have to say the quality and your skills in videography have improved so much . Thank you for your record of our amazing Province. It is always a thrill seeing a different perspective on places I love to explore and others I have not yet. Keep it real and do not go the route of so many RUclips channels that resort to gimmicks and click bait.

    Drone Footage and Scenic Vistas are the best I have ever seen !!! Left North Carolina for a job in Anchorage Alaska in 2015. Was advised by Visitors center in Edson, BC to take Scenic Route through Jasper to see the Canadian Rockies up close. Best advice I ever got ! Wound up driving the Cassiar Highway all the way to Watson Lake. That was "THE TRIP" of my Lifetime!!! Thanks for making New Memories of Beautiful British Columbia. Red Skies at night ! Bosun Bob.

    I lived up there for 6 months while my husband taught grade 4 in Laxgalts’ap , and I drove the high school kids to New Aiyansh. Beautiful part of the world. We landed there January 1997 days after the snow storm of 96 !! In a Toyota 4 runner with a 18 month old boy in the back seat , from the gulf islands . What an adventure, learned to snow shoe ,exploring the the Lava field, fishing in Lizard lake. We left at the end of the school year via cranberry connection. The roads have drastically improved ❤. Planning to return in my teardrop next year 🙏

    When you get to Rupert, go to Gary's Lock Shop at 617 2nd ave w. Get yourself some proper spare keys cut. Bring your camera. His store is like a museum.
    Then see if you can get out to Oona river on Porcher Island. That's an adventure.
    Nice job.

    @Brax2700 11 месяцев назад

    I can't begin to explain how large of an impact your videos have made on me, I started watching your videos a couple years ago when I was around 15 or 16. The first video I watched was when you uploaded the video about the marble quarry in the kootenays, which coincidentally is just down the road from my cabin. Ever since I watched that video I have become like a magnet to a fridge. I haven't missed a single video of yours, and now I feel as if I have a very strong emotional connection to your videos that is very hard to describe. I recently showed your channel to my parents, and every Saturday morning we all sit together on the couch and indulge in the absolutely breathtaking views, and laughs we all have together. Thank you Dustin, you've strongly impacted the way I look at the world, my life would be different in a very negative way without your videos.
